Thomas Jefferson quote #139 from Adams-Jefferson Letters

Bigotry is the disease of ignorance of morbid minds enthusiasm of the free and buoyant. Education and free discussion are the antidotes of both. We are destined to be a barrier against the returns of ignorance and barbarism. Old Europe will have to lean on our shoulders and to hobble along by our side under the monkish trammels of priests and kings as she can. What a Colossus shall we be when the Southern continent comes up to our mark What a stand will it secure as a ralliance for the reason freedom of the globe I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past. So good night. I will dream on always fancying that Mrs Adams and yourself are by my side marking the progress and the obliquities of ages and countries.

Erin Morgenstern quote #129 from The Night Circus

Do you know why I gave my daughter permission to marry your fatherNo Bailey says. It is not a topic that has ever been discussed in his presence though Caroline once told him in secret she heard it was something of a scandal. Even almost twenty years later his father never sets foot in his grandmothers house nor does she ever come out to Concord.Because she would have run off with him regardless she says. That was what she wished. It would not have been my choice for her but a child should not have their choices dictated for them...Follow your dreams Bailey she says. Be they Harvard or something else entirely. No matter what that father of yours says or how loudly he might say it. He forgets that he was someones dream once himself.
